PENNY POSTAGE.
WITH OUTSIDE WORLD. EXCEPT AUSTRALIA. Dargaville, Sept. 20.—The Hoa. J. G. Coates and Mr McVilly, manager of the railways, arrived here last night and received representations regarding various matters. In connection with penny postage, which comes into operation on October .1, Mr Coates said that all countries in the Postal Union, with the exception of the Australian Commonwealth, had agreed to accept penny postage from New Zealand. Thus all letters to Australia would have to bear Utl postage. He was disappointed, but would try again to see if Australia would not come into line.
